The Bishop's Ministries Appeal supports the 70+ ministries that serve our diocese faithful as well as the greater communities where our parishes are located. This includes faith formation and evangelization, CYO sports, formation of priests to serve parishioners, care of the retired priests, parishes in action programs, and meeting the unexpected needs of schools and parishes.
Our 2023 Appeal has raised $2,730,029.27, or 91% of the $3M goal. We were blessed to have 34 parishes meet 100% or more of their parish goal, resulting in more funds being made available for local parish programs and projects. The 2024 campaign will kickoff the weekend of March 29-31 (Easter Sunday). Please pick up a pledge/giving envelope from one of our ushers. Our Second Collection for the Bishop's Appeal will take place on the weekend of April 14th & 15th.
